Notre-Dame comeback meets French political drama: What's next for Macron?
Frances iconic Notre-Dame cathedral re-opens its doors after 5-year rebuild‚ while country faces major political shake-up. **Emmanuel Macron** welcomes global leaders amid fresh government crisis
In a twist of timing Emmanuel Macron prepares to showcase Notre-Dame cathedrals re-birth while dealing with a fresh political mess. The historic building (fixed in record-breaking 5 years) opens its doors Dec-7th with more than 35 global figures coming to Paris
The french leader kept his word about quick rebuild — but now faces bigger problems at home. His government fell apart this week after an odd team-up of far-right and left-wing lawmakers voted against it. Now Marine Le Pen and her party got real power to mess with things for the first-time ever; which makes some folks nervous
- No working budget for next year
- Military spending plans on hold
- Global partnerships at risk
- New prime-minister search needed
The populist threat spares no country; its on the rise everywhere
With Donald Trump and maybe even ukraines leader coming to town‚ Macron cant make any real promises without a working government. The timing couldnt be worse — France being EUs only nuke-power needs to look strong‚ but instead seems shaky. European friends worry about how this mess affects support for Ukraine
The president must pick new prime-minister soon‚ but parliament stays tricky until at least mid-2024. Its like Notre-Dame all over again — Macron needs to rebuild something fast‚ but this time its Frances political system thats broken
